Paging Peter Zimmerman - Lost WIKI

Does anyone one where the Peter Zimmerman 915 WIKI has gone to? The previous link takes you to some Web Site in Chinese.

I do not disbelieve in anything. I start from the premise that everything is true until proved false. Everything is possible.

I scraped it off the Wayback Machine and its here in PDF:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/aupvclxdgd26ei9/Peter%20Zimmerman%20How%20To%20Rebuild%20a%20915%2 0Transmission.pdf?dl=0

I'll leave it there for as long as I can remember... I'd encourage everyone to download it. It's 123 pages and 12MB

*edited to correct size of tile from 70MB to 12.

Thanks! Just downloaded it, and it was only 11.8 megs, not 70. Appreciate it!

Ever have one of those moments where you are looking at useful information and think, I should copy that in case it disappears (as things do on the web). Yup, me too. Fortunately, I copied the page to a word file just last March. It's in a rather raw form at the minute, but I did save it according to sections. Fortunately, again, another link has been created by Showdown.

Thanks Showdown. Good articles like that should be in the Smithsonian!

Too bad. I was hoping we could claim a nuclear physicist as one of our own.
There is probably one out there somewhere, or at least a rocket scientist.

Harry - I've got my old transmission still disassembled and in boxes if you want to look inside of one before you have to take yours apart...

I just printed this before the Chinese got involved. Strange occurrences.
